It's a great topic for discussion.
I am one of the mods at RO and I identify as Gay/Lesbian, or towards that end of the spectrum at least 🙂 Hi!
Hello there homo sapiens 
I am 16 years old. I am an out pansexual but I am not out about being genderfluid. I prefer they/them pronouns.
I just wanted to say I am a bit too obsessed with rainbows.
ok bye. 
Hi everyone, I noticed that we have had quite a few new users who identify as LGBTIQ+ so feel free to introduce yourself and hang out here! 🙂
@unwind @nyke @anna_ambushed @Isaac2554 @Cheeseburger @Blurryphaced @SS_X @Tommy-420
@mrmusic I’m bisexual but I’m attracted to boys more then girls, but I do have say it, the one I’m most attracted to is my bf, my bf he’s bisexual so he don’t care if I am too
@Cheeseburger thank you for sharing! Great to hear that you and your boyfriend are both supportive and open about your sexuality
@gina-RO@Bree-RO@scared01@Nightruner23 and everyone else, well guys, I’m sad to say that my bf broke up with me, as I’m not bisexual like I thought, I’m DEMISEXUAL
hey @Cheeseburger i'm sorry to hear that you and your boyfriend split 😞 that's sounds like a very rough situation to deal with right now. I just wanted to say i'm proud of you though, for finding a label that works for you and that you feel comfortable with
@ecla34 it’s very painful that he left me bcuz of my sexuality, as I was willing to stick with him even tho he was, bisexual, but I’m trying to stay strong
If you ever feel like you need some additional support from the community for your relationship, please feel welcome to make a thread to talk about it too xx@ecla34 it’s painful bcuz I have no one who can see past my sexuality, well unless u count my ex/boyfriend, whose now my best best best best friend, I sent my ex boyfriend a msg last night and he hasn’t even read it😭😭💔💔 and what sucks the most is that he’s got a new girlfriend
Aww man @Cheeseburger, that doesn't sound fun at all. It is nice that you still are comfortable enough to stay close friends, and able to still keep a sense of humour. I think that's a really healthy mindset to tackle this with.
If you don't mind me asking, do you know why you might gravitate towards a really specific sexuality label, like demisexual? Just really interested I suppose, I come from a place where I'm hesitant to label how I am attracted, so I'm not that familiar with it all.
@nyke the reason I label myself that is bcuz I have all the signs of being demisexual, I don’t like labelling myself either, but I’m attracted to guys, girls, transgenders, bisexuals, and pansexuals, which is another thing, that points to being demisexual
An interesting side thing that's sorta related; I follow some FtM trans people on YT and I noticed that I always find them quite attractive once they start tetosterone. [i]It makes sense[/i], but it's also a very weird change to observe. xD
I tend to become more attracted to FtM trans people a few months [i]after[/i] they start taking tetosterone
@nyke it’s painful as I keep losing my friends because of my sexuality, I only have one person whose stood by me, and that’s my best best friend
ik that I’m attracted to guys, girls and bisexuals, I just never realised I was attracted to pansexuals, or transgenders until now, it feels weird that I’m attracted to them, but I guess it’s what happens when I actually start paying attention to my sexuality
It’s painful as all I ever wanted was to fit into the world but I guess, I’m always going to be seen differently, it’s gonna be hard, I’m just glad that I have a place where I can explain how things are with my sexuality
Hey @Cheeseburger.
I know it can be hard to lose people for any reason, but especially when it is something you cannot change (nor should you have to!). Stay strong. You will eventually find your tribe and people who will accept you for who you are.
Also, thank you for teaching me what demisexual was! I totally did not understand the definition until now. 🙂
@peacelovepizza ur welcome, I’ve only got one person who hasn’t changed since I came out and told them that I’m demisexual, and that’s my best friend, other then him and my family I have no one, I feel invincible to the world, and to my “friends” it’s painful that they see me differently now
Hey @scared01@ecla34@nyke@peacelovepizza@Bree-RO I’m telling my friends that I’m bisexual as I’m attracted to girls and boys, and transgenders, it’s easier to explain to ppl, and some demisexuals call themselves bi or pansexual
@nyke I’ve sorta started realising that when I start talking to ppl, it’s there personality that I fall for
@nyke That’s what my parents say, if I didn’t have my parents and they hated me for being like this, I would’ve given up
i dont find labels all that helpful tbh, you are who you are.
